Aw man. Maybe next year. I think I could technically swing it, but it's probably one of those things that it would be smart of me to let go. MAGFest, though! MAGFEST.

Let's improve our résumés & cover letters! (Job hunting advice)
XPRTNovice replied to Liontamer's topic in General Discussion
Erm, not to react, but this seems kind of unnecessarily harsh. If you're going to complain (not that you have, I am being hypothetical) that resumes are more than 1 page, but then also complain that a candidate doesn't want to waste space typing out names of people...I dunno. This seems like a really silly reason to throw out an application. EDIT: Further, you give no reason why this is the most unprofessional thing ever. I would think like, profanity in a resume might be better qualified . But really, what makes this so unprofessional? -
OCR01545 - EarthBound "Home Again"

This. I don't know whose smooth voice is on there, but it needs to be on more. A great mix. -
Fit Club ahoy! Where men are bros and women are also bros!
XPRTNovice replied to OceansAndrew's topic in General Discussion
My wife just finished a book on this topic and absolutely loved it. I can't vouch, but I trust her. -
This. I SO wish I had just turned off the series, because the first season was very powerful; the last episode was great. I was totally and utterly confused when I realized that there were more episodes afterwards, and utterly disappointed for the entirety of it. But I will recommend season 1 to anyone, anyday.

I was almost positive this was just short for "macaronis" -

15 minutes of that is really tough; it's basically the formula that Bodeefit.com uses. It's no joke...you want to die after that stuff. -
Help Me Acoustically Evaluate This Room

It's above the garage, which I kind of prefer. -
Help Me Acoustically Evaluate This Room
XPRTNovice replied to XPRTNovice's topic in Music Composition & Production
Thanks guys. I don't have plans for the room yet because I haven't bought the house; what I was mostly worried about was the vaulted ceiling. It appears to peak at about 10 feet or so, judging by the size of the bicycles in the back, but I'll be seeing the house this week. (That's right I haven't seen the place yet; only my wife has and she came home gushing like a girl talking about her fairy castle, so I'm obligated to go see it) -
Hi Guys, We're thinking of moving into a house, and one of the deciding factors is whether or not I can put a studio in it. The room in this house seems awesome; it's a workshop above the garage that's on its way to being finished. The picture is here. I'm looking to draw on the acoustic mastery of the people here - will this room cause me problems from a mixing and production standpoint? This may literally swing us one way or another on this house. I have a vocal booth that is soundproof, so my voiceovers are not an issue. But for mixing and producing music on a pair of monitors, is this room treatable for good acoustics or does the slanted ceiling make for a very bad situation for me? Thanks!

[Job Offer] Looking For Web Designer
XPRTNovice replied to XPRTNovice's topic in Recruit & Collaborate!
I rank them 1.) Rockbarn, 2.) Wiberg 3.)Vayron 4.) Fulginiti. Vayron's site is nice...if I were a pop star. It's got the right feel for that, but not the right feel at all for a VO artist, I don't think. Wiberg's site is nice, if very Flashy with a capital F. Simple layout, though. But I like Rockbarn's site the best because it's all up front and the content is easy to browse. Fulginiti's site is way too busy, full of square shapes, and just...I don't like it. Thanks you guys for the opinions on the site design. I've only gotten maybe 3 people on OCR who are saying they'd be willing to do it for me, though, so if there are any other folks actually willing to DESIGN and BUILD the site, please hit me up. I do appreciate the critique and marketing advice, though. -
I Want To Start A Gaming Blog. Where Should I Start?
XPRTNovice replied to The Derrit's topic in General Discussion
I just heard of this yesterday and thought back to this post: http://www.helpareporter.com/ You can basically list yourself as an authoritative source on any subject, after which you may/may not be contacted by people looking to gather sources for an article. You can also find queries already posted where someone is looking for someone who knows a lot about gaming, and pitch a reply to them. Might be a little more work, but definitely a way to expand your platforming reach. -

I updated the example links with some better examples of good websites in the industry...the other guys were mostly people I knew to be successful. Yes, yes! I don't like the RenManStudio website for a number of reasons, which is why I want to ditch it. I appreciate you guys supporting me in telling me how bad it is though -

Share Your Obscure Hidden Gems of Music Artists
XPRTNovice replied to XPRTNovice's topic in General Discussion
DO IT. I'm telling you, man, when I saw him in Tel Aviv he had an oud player and a flute player with him that were both fucking KILLER. That place was jumpin' easily one of the most fun concerts I've ever seen. -

I quit my day job I do. I'm also not above becoming a paying client if you can show me some real power and how I can harness it like an Esper. -

I think I am there. I have some big names under my belt (Red Bull, GE, Lenovo, etc) so thought it was time to start acting like voiceover artist that pulls in the clients I'm pulling. I'm definitely doing as much work as the guys I posted (with the exception of maybe Blum, whose page is, yes, shit). So, yeah, that's why I'm taking a marketing turn and trying to put brand on that level to catch up with my career, if that makes any sense. I'm trying not to be a pretentious prig in saying that I'm doing well enough, but I think I'm doing well enough. Don't get me wrong, your insight is awesome and I totally appreciate the years of marketing/web experience you're taking the time to write and want to hear more if you have more advice to give. So I'm not just telling you to stop poo-pooing things and stroke my ego. -
